Finally. A Dam Documentary You Want to Watch.

One obvious hurdle facing conservation and environmental-action documentary filmmakers in their attempts to market their work to large diverse audiences is the inherent lack of sex appeal in the subject matter. In this trailer for Felt Soul Media’s upcoming documentary DamNation, the filmmakers combine high-energy cuts and a killer score to show that this story of river ecosystems, hydropower, and dam removal will be far from snoozy. Making good use of financing from the film’s primary sponsor, Patagonia, Felt Soul Media has successfully crafted a trailer for a documentary about dams that looks so good you’re going to be counting the days until it comes out. Well done!
